WCC Historical Archives

The Wayne Community College (WCC) Historical Archives was established to create a more permanent and ongoing commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Wayne Community College, formally celebrated on 15 June 2007.

We welcome contributions from Wayne Community College alumni, retiring administrators and other college employees whose personal papers may be of unique historical interest to the college or the local community. Those who wish to make donations are encouraged to contact the Director of Library Services at 919.739.6891, or ext. 6891 on-campus, or wcc-library@waynecc.edu to make arrangements for such a gift or loan. Copies of the Deed of Gift and an Explanation of the Deed of Gift forms are available on this website.

Researcher requests to use the collections must be made at least a day in advance, and a valid picture I.D., such as a Driver’s License is required. Collections will only be used under close supervision of library staff, in the Library itself. Finding guides will be available in print and online for researchers describing the contents of each collection once it is processed.

Researchers not present in the library may request photocopies of materials approved for copying at a cost of fifteen cents per page. Users of the collection will be required to use only pencils or laptops for recording information on-site, and may only photocopy materials with permission of the Archivist or Director of Library Services.
